    The surviving members of the Epstein community want to know for sure they are chatting with children when they pick their next targets.

    “If GrapheneOS devices can’t be sold in a region due to their regulations, so be it.”

    Wonder if Motorola feels the same way.

      They can just sell their normal phone. As long as the user is able to run the installer it doesn’t really matter.

        During prohibition era, there was a brick of dried grapes being sold as a nutrition supplement or something like that, but it had a “warning” sticker attached saying specifically not to dissolve it in a specific quantity of water, and if that were to happen, do not let a specific quantity of yeast to fall in it, and especially not to let it sit for 6 weeks, or else you might end up with wine, which is forbidden!

        I can see a cheeky sort of company selling a phone with a little warning label attached to it…

          I believe the US and Brazil are the only countries in the world forcing age verification. They chose to pull their infrastructure out of France bit there is no ban on the sale of devices with it installed.

            It’d be pretty naive to assume that other countries wont follow.

        The rest of the planet may have something to say on that front. There IS more to the world than naziland.

          Yes, but the US is a huge, profitable market. And companies will bend over backwards to appease Nazis so long as it’s more profitable to do so than not.

          Within the US we have issues with all the US History books being written to comply with Texas’s “slavery was actually good for black people” bullshit because Texas is such a big market and everybody wants in on it.

    I was wondering when I would see this headline. I wonder if any other big names will make similar statements.

      I also wonder whether or not grapheneos, or open source Linux OSs in general, will face any repercussions for failing to comply to these regulations due to the relatively low user count.
